Blog Research

In literature, we study texts (fiction, non-fiction, poetry). In this study, the point is to look at how chemists communicate with one another for the purposes of sharing data. Since this study is not about the actual chemistry shared, but rather the discourse used to share it, it is essential to examine the texts that serve as vehicles to this sort of communication.

For this study, I am relying on blogs and wikis to serve as primary texts.
